A Real Taste of Video-Game Gore

This past weekend in London’s Smithfield Meat Market, Japanese video game makers, Capcom, gave food shoppers a taste (literally) of what to expect in the release of their latest edition to the Resident Evil series. Bringing the shockingly gory graphics of their new game to reality, a pop-up butcher shop was setup to offer an assortment of freakishly realistic human body parts. Aiming to be more frightening than appetizing, the meat counter was filled with bloodied hands, ready-to-eat human ears complete with a life-sized raw meat lady.
The booth was authentic and the food items a real artistic feat for this one of a kind meat-marketing project.
